lyrics

Our Planet Earth-Steven M. Hewitt

A billion light years we have traveled
across the infinite gulfs of outer space;
every enigma we've unraveled
in the starry galaxies through which we race,
but now our journey brings us back to
the ethereal planet of blue.

How long it has been I cannot say
since we lived and worked on that picturesque sphere,
but our thoughts haven't faded away
for of all the worlds in space, we loved it here,
and now that our voyage is almost through
we see again our planet of blue.

Ah, but it has been ages
since we tread over that ground.
Who knows how many pages
of history will be found?
For when we left, mankind
was still trying to climb
out of his savagery.

At night at the helm I dream
of those green and fertile fields
and every deep lake and stream
brings to mind such pleasant thrills,
for I've loved this planet
since the first day we met
in all her pageantry.

Yes, O Earthmen, we've been here before.
Your ancestors may remember us still
in your sculptures, paintings and folklore
that hopefully have survived through your combined will. (Fix this)

But wait, what is this? What has happened
to the harmonious world that we once knew?
The so called harmony has ended
leaving but smoldering ashes for us to view,
and we feel our hearts grow sick inside
at the sight of what had been our pride.

We leave this galaxy now Earthmen
for you have left us nothing but your sorrow
so you must rebuild your world again
and should we return eons from tomorrow
we pray there will have been a rebirth
to this world once beautiful....to Earth,
Our Earth.
